Es Devlin is one of the world’s most visionary artists and stage designers - the creative mind behind some of the most iconic cultural moments of our time, from Beyoncé and Adele’s performances to the London Olympics and Conference of the Trees at COP26 in Glasgow. In this episode of Visionaries, Alice Aedy sits down with Es to explore the imagination as a tool for connection and change. They discuss how awe can shift behaviour more than fear, what it means to design for both human and non-human audiences, and how art can help us see, and build, a more hopeful future.

For over three decades, Sophie Darlington has helped create some of the most iconic natural history documentaries of our time - Planet Earth, The Hunt, Dynasties, Our Planet II, Queens and African Cats. Her work has earned her a BAFTA, an Emmy, and one of the highest honours in cinematography: membership of the ASC - the American Society of Cinematographers in recognising her as one of the leading visual storytellers of our time. In summary, she’s a badass. This episode is full of wisdom from a true trailblazer - she was one of the first female DOP’s in a male dominated industry - what drives her, and how she’s now offering the same mentorship to upcoming talent she credits herself receiving (and yes, even she still has imposter syndrome).

In June 2020, a single photograph taken by Misan Harriman at a Black Lives Matter protest went viral — shared by Martin Luther King III and seen by millions across the world. Almost overnight, Misan went from self-taught photographer to becoming the first Black male cover photographer in British Vogue’s history. In this conversation with Alice Aedy for Visionaries, Misan reflects on the image that changed his life, the role of protest photography in shaping culture, and the responsibility of storytellers to capture truth and legacy.
